クラウンでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The Clowne Greenway is a reclaimed railway, travelling through cuttings (known locally as the canyons) which will excite geologists. The rock faces are home for many species of wild flowers, insects, mammals and birds.

The parish church in Clowne was built in 1138. Originally dedicated as "All Saints", the church stood adjacent on the ridgeway route between Mansfield and Worksop Priory. The church's dedication was soon changed to John the Baptist and the first rector was John M. Leyaster, who was recorded in 1299. The tower dates back to the 15th century with the bells added at various times with the first being installed in 1591, then 1616 and finally 1812.

The station was opened by the Lancashire, Derbyshire and East Coast Railway on its Beighton Branch in March 1897 as "Clown". It was closed to regular timetabled passenger traffic in September 1939 although Summer Weekend excursions continued until 1964. The line was closed completely in 1967. The station was close to the Clowne and Barlborough station of the Midland Railway, which was about 40 yards to the north on a parallel track.
